Spotlight ranger 

Someone who only performs when a superior observes them; not a team player. From US Army Ranger school slang for a ranger student who doesn't give his all unless he is the one being evaluated on a mission - ie they only perform in the spotlight.
Jones is such a spotlight ranger. He didn't help with the project and then when the boss arrived he handed out the packets as if he did all the work.

Any retard in the U.S. Army that goes to the PX, buys military awards and/or decorations that they didn’t earn and then pins them on their chest so that they can go around looking like a hero. These yahoos often claim to have served in the Rangers or Force Recon or some other elite unit, but that they got out because of an injury or because they got tired of the B.S.
Private Snuffy – “Hey, that new mess sergeant is a bad ass. He served with the Rangers in Vietnam, Panama, Afghanistan and Iraq. He says that he got a field commission to Captain after he won the Silver Star but he got busted back down and kicked out of the Infantry because he punched his CO in the face.”
Sergeant – “He’s full of crap.”
Private Snuffy – “No way, I saw his rack of ribbons and his Ranger tab on his shoulder.”
Sergeant – “Damnit, haven’t you ever heard of a PX ranger? Besides. How old was he during Nam? Two?”

United States Army Ranger

A soldier whom serves their enlistment in the 75th Ranger Regiment. These individuals are specially trained, and endure various selection/training processes in order to gain entrance into the 75th. They fall under USASOC, are considered "specialized infantry", and have a very specific mission set with in the special operations realm. They are indentified by their tan berets, Ranger Battalion unit scrolls, and knarley stares. These men are not to be crossed.
Army Ranger Battalions of the 75th Ranger Regiment are notorious for maintaining their high level of training, and take pride on keeping every Ranger at a high level of physical fitness as well as having them far more skilled in their professions than any basic soldier/marine.

Billy and Jimmy were hanging out with their frat bothers at a bar when one of them said the wrong thing to the wrong guy. After waking up in the ER, they were informed that they had been sent there by the group of United States Army Rangers they had popped off to, and that their girlfriends had left with the Rangers.

Extremist organizations want no part of the soldiers of the 75th Ranger Regiment... Doesn't make business sense.
